"This painting is oil on linen, 24 x 24" and, like many of my paintings over the last few years, features my family. As Professor Ken Howard RA has said 'an artist paints who he is at a given time' and at this particular point in time I have a young family. What better way for me to express myelf on canvas than to paint my family in particular settings that are a joy for both them and me, such as at the beach.
